Finally we come to the last of the ecosystems goals. Life on the land and systems sustainability. This is one of the major themes of Mezzacello.
This is also UN Sustainable Development Goal number 15. This entire blog post could just be images. I try so hard to embody every factor of supporting and promoting life on land.
The Triangles of Sustainability
Jim Bruner | Mezzacello These two triangles underscore my viewpoint of how we can make smart choices
One of them incorporates the body mind and overlapping communities of action, impact and intention. One of them is how the world is actually sustainable. Both require focus and action.
If it feels too good to be true, it probably is. If you can’t justify an action without knowing it’s true intention, action, and impact or it’s process, structure, and pattern then work harder. And keep your focus on the goal at hand.
The goal at hand is life on land. Us, all of us and the billions of species of plants, animals, insects, microlife, and bacteria that keep the focus of life central to its existence.
This is what it’s going to take. Don’t be cross or discouraged. It is important – for more important than convenience.
